Hello community!

 

I was wondering if anyone else but me is a little fed up with the oversized mouse pointers for Windows 8.1? I would like to know if there's a third party software that I could install in order to resize my pointer? Installed Windows 8.1 for about 2 weeks now and I like it. I recently found about StartIsBack from one of the posts that I was reading and it sure does bring handy start menu back. 

 

I recently joined the community so this is my first ever post.

 

Thanks,

 

Simple.

Should be able to change the size in mouse settings. Here's how to access those https://www.microsoft.com/enable/training/windows8/change-mouse.aspx

Oversized? It's the same size like any other version of Windows. You must have manually changed the settings.

Thats what I was thinking as well...

The problem that I'm having is, it's coming out to be the regular mouse pointer. But, after Windows 8.1 has loaded all of my programs and such. It magnifies it to a larger mouse pointer. 

 

Well, I sort of fixed the issue. 

 

When I open up magnifier up to 100%; my mouse pointer acts fine. But when I close it, my mouse pointer magically re sizes into a larger one.
